This deeply human documentary examines the subjects of environmental destruction from two distinct angles. Impoverished migrant workers are chopping down the Amazon rainforest to create charcoals for pig iron used primarily in the automobile industry. The film examines their daily lives and work as they burn timber in igloo looking huts, their bodies charred gray, for $2 a day, children and elders alike, struggling to get ahead. Beautifully photographed, critically acclaimed, award winning. Portuguese with English subtitles, color
